CHANDIGARH: Finally bowing to pressure of owners of residential units facing sealing due to misuse of premises for commercial/institutional purpose, the urban local bodies department has announced to cut conversion charges for legalizing their properties.
Depending upon the location of premises, the urban local bodies department has slashed the conversion charges to almost around 20% of the rates announced earlier. With this thousands of such violators, especially in the national capital region ( NCR) of Gurgaon, Faridabad, Sonipat and Rohtak, will be benefited.
In Gurgaon, those persons having their residential premises near 30-meter road would now have to pay an amount of Rs 3,000 per square feet against the old rates of Rs 14,000 per square feet. Those having their buildings near over 30-meter wide roads (national or state highways) would have to pay Rs 3,500 per square feet against the old rates of Rs 16,000.
Similarly, for those having structures near 30-meter wide roads of Faridabad and Panchkula would have to pay a fee of Rs 1,500 per square feet against the old rates of Rs 7,200. For over 30 meter roads the charges would be Rs 2,000 per sq feet against the old rates of Rs 9,200.
An audit by the town and country planning department and Haryana Urban Development Authority (HUDA) found thousands of shops/commercial premises operating from residential premises.
Last year, the town and country planning department had started sealing such premises in the colonies developed by private colonizers. Similarly, HUDA had been taking action in its sectors.
ULB department officials said that the new charges would help civic bodies to improve their financial health.
According to a decision taken by the ULB department, the rates have been decided on the basis of location as well as property's distance from the roads. The current slabs have been divided into two categories.
Slamming the state government, Citizen Welfare Association (CWA) president S K Nayyar said, "One thing is for sure that it shall encourage violation of building bylaws, create more nuisance in residential areas. This is sure to hit business of those running from commercial areas.''

Hubby hates holidays
Q: What do you think of a spouse that does not in any way celebrate the holidays? No gifts or cards for birthdays, anniversaries, Christmas, Valentines Day, etc. He's great about lots of other things but does not do holidays. I am hurt by this as they are important to me but he doesn't understand that.
-- Red
A: What about Chrismukkah?
Sorry. Kidding.
Look, the fact that he's "great about lots of other things" is probably more important than his treatment of holidays. Still, I understand why his special-occasion-phobia would bother you, especially when it comes to anniversaries. You'd think he'd want to celebrate your success as a married couple. But I get it -- some people just can't deal with obligation, malls, deadlines, and all that comes with holiday festivities.
If your spouse is one of those people – and you're the opposite – a compromise might be a joint gift. Once a year (pick the most random day possible), both of you choose one gift that will improve your lives as a pair. It could be a vacation, a television, a comfy piece of furniture … an annual splurge that's a joint investment.
It'll be fun to work together to pick it out, and you'll both be able to enjoy the result. Seems like a fair compromise.
On a side note, I'm curious to know how he feels about St. Patrick's Day. If he spends it anywhere near Guinness, you have my permission to call him a hypocrite.
Readers? How should Red cope with a hubby who abhors holidays? Share here. Submit your own letter for here (make it juicy – Boston.com readers are bored at work/home and are more than happy to spend the afternoon solving your problems). Read yesterday's chat here. Read about the Celtics and Love Letters here.

Wasn't your spouse like this before you were married? Didn't lack of holidays bother you then? If so, why did you get married? And why are you complaining now? Simply put, if there was no "bait & swtich", you have nothing to complain about. You should not go into situations thinking you will change your partner.
I have to say I sort of agree with Alvin if he was like this before you got married you lost your right to complain. You can still be hurt and unhappy but you really cannot complain since you knew it going in. You cannot change someone unless they want to change. I would find it annoying as well because I like birthdays etc and so does my DH.
I have to wonder what your DH's family was like? Growing up it was normal to get presents for birthdays, Christmas, Easter and anniversaries (my parents) and Mother and Father's day and that shaped how I do holidays. I buy for my siblings and their spouses and their kids and my parents, and mirroring that for my inlaws. And we give gifts rather than cash unless there are a bunch of us going in on a $$$ gift as a general rule.
As a contrast my BIL's family never did presents for birthdays they got a cake that was it, it wasn't a money issue (at least that is what I am told and will take it for face value) and so to this day he never knows what he wants. This flumoxes us, but I have managed to somewhat adjust, I just give him money and he can do what he wants when he wants even if it isn't on his birthday. Ideally I would like to give him a gift but cash will have to do because I couldn't not give him something.
Is he under the impression that you want the moon and the stars and feels that he will mess up? Have you in the past returned what he had gotten you or have you been un happy with your gifts? If so that could lead him to not want to do gifts and not acknowlege that you are hurt by his inactions and not acknowledge that he was hurt by your words. What about the gift is important? The actual gift or acknowlegement of a milestone, understanding that may help you explain to him in a different way why you are hurt by the lack of gifts. And then maybe he can come up with a way of acknowledging the milestone in a different way.
Why don't you tell your hubby that you want to try something new in the bedroom for each holiday you want to celebrate, but that it requires that he recognize the holiday with a small gift or a card?
You can try and nag him into it, or you can entice him. I'll tell you which one would be far more effective in getting me into the holiday spirit!
you know, the wife of the green river killer (most prolific serial killer ever) said the same thing about her husband. he never gave gifts or acknowledged birthdays, etc but he was "great in lots of other ways".
Think about which holidays are truly meaningful for you and which ones you just celebrate out of "tradition." Is it REALLY important to celebrate all the things you've mentioned? If for example Christmas or birthdays are really REALLY important to you, maybe you could talk to your husband and compromise: "We don't need to do the holidays that aren't important like Valentine's Day or Flag Day or whatever, but it's very important to me that we participate in Christmas celebrations."
Some people just don't care about holidays or have negative connotations or never celebrated them as kids. Why don't you TALK to your husband about it?
When I was growing up, my family made it a point to be brutally honest about the gifts they got, forgetting the spirit of the occasion. I learned to dread any holiday involving gifts. It became my job to create holiday cheer, and I found it stressful rather than fun.
I /do/, however, like holidays that involve only food, no gifts. I love being taken out for my birthday, and I love Thanksgiving. Sometimes people invite me over for Christmas or insist on celebrating my birthday, and it is hard to explain why this would only be stressful for me. I do appreciate getting a gift at some random time of year from someone who says, "I saw this and I thought you'd like it."
Make a new rule yourself: intimacy only on holidays/birthdays/anniversaries. He'll be wearing a party hat in no time.
What exactly is it about the holidays he doesn't like? The gift-getting? The social obligations? Visiting family? The upset in routine?
I'm not buying that he doesn't "do" holidays - I'm guessing that there's something about the holidays that bothers him and he deals with it by deciding just not to "do" them.
If the holidays are important to you, you owe it to yourself to find out what the real issue is, and deal with it together as a couple. if it's the financial obligations, pare back; if it's social, limit get-togethers or other commitments, etc.
Groundhog day is always the most dissappointing for me.......... Wife see's her shadow, and hibernates for 4 additional months..... until flag day, when I get called for unsportsmanlike conduct! Then she penalizes me for 15 yards! No replay, no play!
As a guy I think it's ridiculous for this woman's husband to not even bother to get her a card. I mean, come on--it's a pretty small thing, and in relationships we all compromise. I personally dislike most holidays for a number of reasons, but I know it's important to my gf that we celebrate them...so I do. Big deal, it's one day.
To wilfully and repeatedly ignore something so obviously important to your spouse points to much larger problems in my opinion. Either this couple doesn't communicate well (likely) or the husband is using this as a passive-aggressive form of retaliation for something else.
Everything is a Hallmark holiday now, it's not a holiday if gifts are not given, exchanged whatever and i hate it. i grew up in a somewhat religious family, Christmas was a time to be together, celebrate what it means, share a meal be thankful. Now it's about who got what. Everyone's obsessed with gifts, no one knows why we celebrate Christmas anymore.
If i buy a gift for my spouse it's not enough that she likes it, it got got to pass muster with friends and family coz they are all gonna call to find out and in an unspoken it a game of one upmanship, coz if my gift was extravagant, or theirs was, guess what ? my next gift better rival it (you can't say we're competing though)
I'm at a good place in life, most things i want i can get for myself, i've had to come up with things i don't want becoz someone insists on giving me something. Maybe it's just me but i have a problem also with having to keep coming up with creative gifts for adults, gifts should mostly be for children up to a certain age. I Love the Sox, Patriots, Celtics but i swear if i get another t-shirt/sweatshirt of them.................
I had a similar problem and if I gave him a gift, he would get angry. I was concerned about the effect this would have on how our children would treat their spouses, so I started scheduling birthday dinners OUT and I paid. Each person whose birthday it was selected the restaurant. When it was his turn, he refused because there was food at home. The children insisted he play by the rules, even if his choice was McDonalds. He's still a jerk on this issue but our children are loving and generous spouses and partners. He gave me a carton of soy milk and a package of dental floss for Christmas, now that we are divorced.
He's just cheap and lazy, and he doesn't care much for her feelings.
Is he a perfectionist? Does he hate getting things wrong? Holidays are difficult for some guys because in many cases we have no idea what we're doing. There's always someone who has a better idea or are more financially able to do something for their S.O. that we cannot. The constant carpet bombing of advertisements surrounding every holiday only makes it worse.
Also, ask your self something. Have you ever shown real disappointment at a gift he may have gotten you in the past that may have embarrassed him?
Sounds like the pressure to get it perfect may be too much for him, so he chooses not to do anything - which is a cop out. He should know you.
......or he could just be really lazy.
Is it safe to assume that this is not a religious issue? I'm guessing that that would have been mentioned. I grew up in a family with a mother who was a Jehovah's Witness. My father was not a member of that faith, but he let my mother raise us how she wanted to - we did not celebrate ANY holiday, whether it was relgious or secular. Now, in my 30s, I am not a member of that religion, and have not practiced it in close to 20 years. Yet, all holidays are completely meaningless to me. I would prefer to avoid the hassle associated with them. But, they mean a lot to my significant other, so I basically follow his traditions now.
Are you sure that your husband didn't grow up with a similar situation and just doesn't talk about it?
My boyfriend (of almost 3 years) doesn't like me spending money on him, especially presents. I get him something anyways. He deals with it, but gripes that he'll feel bad if he doesn't use it. I don't really care if he uses it or not--part of the fun is trying to figure out what that "perfect" gift would be! For his birthday/Christmas (yep, he's a Christmas baby) I got him a Blu-ray DVD player--he was really excited and uses it! For Valentines Day, I made him a surprise over-the-top themed dinner (I tried to recreate one of our favorite meals, it both surprised him and touched him) plus I made him his favorite dessert. I think that that was his favorite gift to date!
The other side of this is that he knows how much I love holidays, so he deals with it!
Think about it this way, a lot of our holiday hype is quite literally sponsored by Hallmark and FTD. Special occasions are special to you. Valentine's Day is special to Hallmark's annual profit.
Wow! There are some pretty harsh assessments of people who don't like gift giving on demand here. My family (DH, two sons) don't exchange gifts on holidays. We are generous and loving with each other all year but don't really get into "things". We make a point of doing things together during the November/December holiday extravaganza...but going to the mall isn't one of them.
And I really don't like being required to give a gift. If you are having a baby or getting married, you can count on me to send you something. But I'm not as happy to do it if you tell me what you want and schedule a shower.
If her husband is never generous, never surprises her with flowers or something he thinks she'd like...then she's got a valid complaint. If he just doesn't dance to the tune of Hallmark, then ...it's time to put things in perspective.
. -
My husband is the same way. He's great around the house, brings home flowers for no apparent reason and is a great father. He hates major holidays. I think he feels pressure to perform to some stupid standard set up the flower, card, or gift industry. I get that, but the holidays are still important to me.
So, I order something I really like (this Valentine's Day, for example, I ordered a cappuccino maker I really wanted). It may be cheating but at least I don't feel like a loser when someone asks me what my hubby got me for such-and-such holiday! -
It sounds interesting to me that you include birthdays and anniversaries as holidays. These events to me are not holidays but personal occasions. You say he does not give you a card, but do you do anything on any of these dates for him? Was there a traumatic event that happened to him on a holiday? Was he raised as a Jehovah's Witness?
Personally, I am not one of those people who is big into the gift giving thing. My husband and I don't exchange gifts for every holiday or special occasion. We do not celebrate Valentine's Day and several other "holidays". If there are some other traditions you would like to follow, perhaps you can compromise. I don't think it would be fair to try to celebrate every holiday. Perhaps, he just doesn't believe in gift giving, including cards, because society tells him it's time to. There are other ways of celebrating, and perhaps, that's what you two have to work out.
I'm wondering why it took so long for somebody to state the fact that most holidays are purely commercial propaganda.
Why am I supposed to be especially nice to my wife on Valentine's day? I'd rather be at my best EVERY DAY.
Why do I need to buy all that candy for Halloween? Take a guess...
I treat my family and friends as well as I can every day, and I don't care whether somebody tries to brainwash me into behaving differently on a random day just so they make a fortune.

Yeah, after my first wife screeched with fury when I got her a handmade silver necklace from a jeweler I knew - not the first time or the last when my gifts were harshly judged for spending too much, too little, not being quite what she wanted, being too frivolous, being too serious ... - I wasn't nearly as enthusiastic about getting her gifts. In my observation, the "Reds" of the world are absolutely NOT in the "it's the thought that counts" camp.
And you know something? Some people just don't have the $$ to blow on the lavish gifts people seem to demand nowadays. I sure don't want my wife spending $200 on a present for me when I'm struggling to pay the bills every month.
I wonder why he doesn't like holidays. He probably just doesn't like false tradition that he feels no connection to.
Maybe instead of celebrating holidays in the traditional sense, you can tell him you want to celebrate, but are open to different ideas.
I always view a birthday as a good reason to go out and have a nice dinner out. I mean, what's so harmless about that?
Any holiday that is worthwhile should involve a lot of booze. Thanksgiving.....is great because of that Wednesday night. St. Patrick's Day is amazing because it basically focuses on getting hammered.
You two are too much in love to require my uber-advice. You don't need a lawyer, or a counselor. No one is cheating...or having unsafe text. The kids are growing leaps and bounds, the dog is neutered and Thanksgiving is always on the 4th Thursday in November. Thanks be to God (and i am mixing my messiahs here) you don't need to figure out Tu B'Shevat (2/9 in 2009, but 1/30 in 2010) or Purim (3/10 in 2009, but 2/28 in 2010). Easter needs a calculator, but it fluctuates with the full moon (of course the Last Supper is a Seder...attached to the ever changing Passover). In other words, in a goyishe world you really don't have it so hard. In a technological world you are fortunate that your husband can go online, plug in the dates and greetings for all pertinent holidays and celebrations, and send an e-card to any and all of his loved ones for about 2 years. He's a champ: Your flowers are virtual, yet colorful and the kids get a greeting from their dad by their preferred method of communication - Cyber. He can even send a gift from the family laptop. Love the nebbish.
You haven't said if you have talked to your husband about this and I think a nice, thoughtful conversation in which you both listen to each other is needed here. As others have said, many of these "holidays" are commercial and sort of meaningless. Are there any special events (because you're not just talking about holidays here) that you can agree to compromise on? Are there ways in which your husband expresses his feelings that aren't cards or gifts that maybe you need to recognize for what they are, even if they don't meet your standards or Hallmark's standards of how feelings should be expressed? Does your need for cards and gifts come from a genuine place inside you or from a worry that others will judge your relationship because you don't get thm?
My fiancee is also not into holidays and birthdays (and I very much am!). I think most of it is the way he was raised - holidays and birthdays were not a huge deal in his family. He's uncomfortable receiving presents from others, and like a lot of guys, doesn't like having to go out and shop for gifts, especially if he's not exactly sure what I'd want. But, we still celebrate the big things, and over the years, he's gotten a little more used to it. He'll always be a little scrooge-like (IMO), but he can deal with it a few times a year. And we've compromised on certain holidays, like Valentines Day, which he feels strongly about not participating in, and I'm ok with that. Just make sure he knows what your expexctations are, so that you're not left without gifts and angry on your bday and holidays! Communicate and tell him what you want!!
Maybe it would be helpful to you to read The Five Love Languages by counselor Gary Chapman? Or perhaps it might be helpful just to reflect upon the five languages the author speaks of-- words of affirmation, quality time, receiving gifts, acts of service, and physical touch?
If your husband is "great in other ways," maybe he just doesn't speak the language of gifts. (I can undersand that. I don't speak that language either. I grew up in a home with too much "stuff" and try to limit what I acqure. I also dislike shopping and the feeling of pressure to buy something.) I agree with the suggestion to buy yoursef something--that's a good idea!
It's always been interesting to me how intolerant people who are "gifties" are of people who are not.
It's also interesting that the letter writer seems to define celebrating holidays as consisting solely of gift and card giving. Does the holiday not exist if a gift is not given?
On further thought, wish I'd described "gifties" as baffled, rather than intolerant. A better description as well as less divisive, perhaps.
As a guy I dont much like holidays myself. I think Christmas has become an orgy of over spending mixed in with stress that comes with finding the perfect gift. With that being said I dont let my issues with the holiday interfere with my kids holiday expereince or my spouses for that matter. So what if the holiday is man made? Life saving surgical procedures are "man-made" and thank god for that. Most occasions or holidays are there to make someone feel special, if only for a moment and whats wrong with that? Last Valentines day I had the kids and myself spread rose petals on the hallway floor, leading form my spouses bedroom all the way downstairs to the kitchen table where we had set up balloons and small inexpensive gifts for my spouse. The kids had fun setting it up, it taught them its important to make others feel special, and my spuose was so happy when she woke. Thanks Hallmark!
Spend money is Merediths answer??? Buy a joint gift??? Meredith is not qualified to do this correctly. The root of the problem is not buying gifts and spending money to glaze over it. That is poor advice that could make you poor. That is about the same as saying have a child since you and your husband have issues and are fighting all the time and that will make it better. STUPID
If you don't like it that he doesn't like holidays then why did you marry him? If it was a bait and switch thing then divorce him and move on to someone that is better for you. If it is you that was "ok" with it but are now changing your tune then do him a favor and get a divorce so he can be with someone that is better for him.
Bottom line is that you need to sit down and figure out what it is you want and if he is the man for you right now. Don't wait till you "buy things", "Have children", etc...and have hours of "therapy". Do something for yourself and in turn for him and make your decision now rather than later when it is too late.
Did you get married to him because it was the thing to do as the next step or because you really wanted to be married and he was the first to ask or you wanted a ring to show off???? What did/do you want and how do you get it? Sounds like you are the one with the problem, not his denial of celebrating holidays. Holidays don't make relationships....PEOPLE make them.
Hubby is self-centered, lazy, inconsiderate and selfish.
Self-centered because holidays are for sharing good times with others.
Lazy because holidays are for giving gifts.
Inconsiderate because he lets you know that he doesn't like holidays.
Selfish because he'd rather do his own thing.
I'd give him a change to clean up his act; if not I'd dump him. Life is too short to share it with a self-centered, lazy, inconsiderate and selfish jerk. -
My guess is there is some baggage that he has with holidays and gifts so tread gently. The area of gifts is obviously emotionally charged. All you have to do is to read the comments above to see that. Maybe you should tell your husband you do not want gifts, you just want 10 minutes together to mark how special you are to one another. For me, heartfelt is much more important than expensive: a hand written note can be better than a bought card and the wholesale clubs like BJ's have the cheapest, prettiest and longest lasting flowers. That is where my husband gets me flowers, and I get the joy of keeping them longer than some expensive arrangement from a florist. We all have too much stuff, so in my house we focus on gifts without footprints - a bottle of wine to share, a few nice chocolates, flowers, rent the first movie we saw together... something special we can enjoy without huge expense or more junk floating around the house.
PS. I blew up at my husband when, for my birthday I cooked, no one stopped what they were doing long enough to come to the table to eat, but instead took their food and left, and no one sang happy birthday to me and there was no cake. I did get gifts... big deal. I didn't need a lavish gift or anything, I just wanted 10 minutes for everyone to stop what they were doing and make me feel special. When their birthdays come along I let them choose the menu, cook a special dinner, buy and wrap gifts and bake a cake. I wanted at least a fraction of that for me. [My husband felt bad and came home the next night with a cake and everyone sang... it almost made up for the night before.]
The conversation with your husband might be nicer if you don't refer to him as "Scrooge-like" as #26 does ... this is a value judgment about holidays that will probably back your husband into a corner. Try to approach this by thinking that you may both have valid points of view.
Diane R shows exactly what is WRONG with people (not just women) today: most holidays are not for giving gifts. Traditionally most holidays were to celebrate and/or observe religious events, moments in history, or personal triumphs. Before Christmas was a friggin' commercial bonanza, it was a solemn religious occasion. Before Valentine's day was synonymous with candy and mediocre lingerie, it was a minor religious holiday.
Amusingly, most of these are CHRISTIAN, aka white bread European holidays that have been corrupted into commercial ventures. The Jews had to sort of invent the commericality of Hannukah buecase they don't give out presents on any other of the big holidays. Unless you count the little prize for the afikomen. maybe if people weren't so shallow and grabby, holidays would be fun again.
Diane R, just wondering when the last time a man gave you the time of day? With an attitude like that, you don't deserve it.
One word: tightwad.
I don't buy my husband gifts for any holidays and he doesn't buy gifts for me either. We buy what we want when we want it so I see no reason to spend money on extra things just because it is Christmas, Valentine's Day, or whatever. I usually make a point to get a card and a cake for his birthday and I like him to do the same for me, for the kids' sake. They enjoy it and I think it is important that they see these little expressions of love without being over the top with extravagant gifts.
What do I think of a spouse like that? I think he's got his head screwed on right and I applaud him for being clear on what his views are on the subject. The real question is, what should we think about a person like Red, who is either foolish enough to marry someone without spending a single holiday with them (which would have shown her what his behavior in this area is) or stupid enough to think that she can change another person to meet her own idea of how holidays should be celebrated. When will people learn that you can't change other people, just yourself.
Tell me, would you really like to receive a gift that someone is giving you knowing that the only reason you are getting it is that you have successfully browbeaten him into giving it to you? Will that make it a special holiday for you?
And #19, that is really pathetic to go out and secretly buy things so you can tell people that your husband gave you something. Grow a spine and tell people you don't celebrate made up holidays or that you as a couple choose not to participate in material exchanges.
I guess some people aren't happy unless they can "change" someone else and complain endlessly if they can't.
I am a husband.
I don't much care for all the gifts, cards, and excesses associated with all the holidays. None of these things represent love, and I don't consider fighting the mall crowds to be quality time.
I'd rather sit down to a nice dinner with my family, then play a game of Monopoly or Rock Band with my kids.
I find the idea of special days to be blasphemous in that all days are equal creations. The existence of our universe requires all of its moments, and we shouldn't pick out some as having more importance than others. If we think our birthday is a special day, soon we'll be thinking that we are of special importance. All moments should be celebrated and celebrated equally. Your husband is right.
I'm laughing at all the females that are crying about this... one more reason for men to not get married and end up tied down to some whining idiot that actually thinks ONE DAY in their relationship should be treated more special that each other day. You married him, didn't you know he was this way before? Or are you trying to "change" him (laugh)? Does he abuse you? Or cheat on you? Does he fail to provide for you and your family?? If not then get a grip and stop whining about your stupid holidays, you have it much better that many couples...
Everyone should be thoughtful and considerate of their spouse or 'significant other'.
Getting all aggressive or whiny about doing something nice for someone else just means you're immature or selfish or both. That goes for both men and women.
Holidays and life cycle events break up the sameness of everyday life. They give us something to look forward to and a reason to get together with family and friends. They make us stop and think about those who are important to us, say "I care about you" and create traditions and memories to look back on and pass on to our children. There are many ways to celebrate and no one should abandon thoughtfulness because they hate malls. There are plenty of ways to acknowledge these events and the writer was hurt, not because she wasn't getting loot, but because her spouse ignores what could be fun and special times for them. Before my husband and I were married, our gifts to each other were often doing something special together. We discussed it in advance and saved up for a nice meal out or a getaway or cooked for each other. Those were the best. Sometimes he gave me presents, which were nice when he put some thought into them and were disappointments when it was obvious it was a last minute "guilt gift" bought on the way home (I was still outwardly thankful). After the babies arrived, he just stopped being thoughtful. Years went by with birthdays and holidays barely acknowledged by him while I made sure that he and the kids were always made to feel special. It was deeply hurtful to give so much of myself and receive nothing in return and it set a bad example for the kids. I felt that I had been put on the back burner in his life. Not wanting to be a nag or whiner or appear too needy, I kept it to myself. Slowly he's gotten better but it's not to where we once were. The writer needs to get to the root of her husband's aversion to holidays and explain to him that a person likes to be made to feel special once in a while. They could start with marking off two date nights on the calendar where they take turns planning a night out (or in) that they think the other would enjoy. Best of luck to her. I feel her pain.

Eastern European Models 2010-03-25 15:00:22
Fab's Favorite Eastern European Models!
Fab's Favorite Eastern European Models!
It's no secret Eastern Europe is, well, the secret weapon for the modeling industry. While Argentina is quickly becoming a new hot spot for model discovery, Eastern Europe (Russia, Lithuania, Belarus, etc.) will always be a mainstay, the bread and butter. That's because the girls are tall, slender, and have looks that could make any model scout melt. Yes, many of the models are super young, but their beauty is undeniable. Take Russian model Natasha Poly for example; she lends mega oomph to the industry. And those cheekbones — sigh. Here are more of our favorite Eastern European models!

The Nuclear Regulatory Commission is seeking public comment on a study that looks at the potential impact of earthquakes on the pools where spent fuel is stored. The study says the pools likely are safe. An independent nuclear power expert says the study is flawed.
In his first news interview about Indian Point's license renewals since he took over in his new role earlier this year, William Mohl spoke with WAMC's Allison Dunne about how he's trying to putting more of a public face on the process.
Vermont, New York, Massachusetts and Connecticut are petitioning the Nuclear Regulatory Commission for a more thorough review of issues connected with storage of highly radioactive nuclear waste at plant sites.
TARRYTOWN – The day that the Nuclear Regulatory Commission outlined the criteria for the good grades it gave the Indian Point nuclear power plants for their operations in 2012, proponents of not renewing Entergy's licenses to operate the two units continued their lobbying toward that goal.
On the other side of the issue is New York AREA, which is comprised of organizations and businesses that support Indian Point. The 2012 rating is the latest in a long line of good grades for the plants, said NY AREA's director Jerry Kremer.
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission is holding a public meeting and open house this evening to discuss the Commission's recent safety assessment of the Indian Point nuclear power plant in Westchester County. Earlier today, Indian Point opponents issued their own report card, grading the NRC.
A number of leaders of environmental and citizens' groups stood near the Hudson River in Peekskill Tuesday, with the Indian Point power plant reactors in the background. Former Democratic New York State Assemblyman Richard Brodsky was among them.
WHITE PLAINS, N.Y. (AP) — The federal fisheries service says the continued operation of two nuclear plants in the Hudson Valley would kill hundreds of fish in two protected species, but would not come close to wiping them out.
An appeals court has ruled that public participation, nearly all the time, must be included when federal regulators consider granting safety exemptions to nuclear power plants. Monday's ruling has to do with a fire-safety exemption that was granted for Indian Point 3. The case is Brodsky versus the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, and it falls under the National Environmental Policy Act. Former New York State Assemblyman Richard Brodsky argued the case on behalf of a group of plaintiffs, including the Sierra Club-Atlantic Chapter, and Westchester's Citizens Awareness Network. In this week's ruling, the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals vacated part of a district court ruling involving an exemption to fire-safety rules. Here' Nuclear Regulatory Commission Spokesman Neil Sheehan:
The states of Vermont and New York are calling on the Nuclear Regulatory Commission to do a more thorough study of the impacts of storing spent nuclear fuel on the grounds of nuclear power plants.The Wednesday federal court filing from the two states is part of a process by the NRC that is soliciting comments on nuclear waste storage.
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission has made it official: It sees no need for stepped-up inspections at the Vermont Yankee nuclear plant.That word comes in a letter from William Dean, Northeast regional administrator for the NRC, to Vermont Public Service Commissioner Elizabeth Miller.Miller has written to the NRC twice this year to raise concerns about what she has termed human performance problems at the plant.
An administrator says federal regulators are researching whether nuclear plants can be licensed to run beyond the current limit of 60 years. WAMC's Dave Lucas reports…
The comment came as representatives of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission discussed the two Indian Point plants in the New York City suburbs.
Indian Point's owner is seeking new licenses that would extend the plants' life to 60 years. Regional administrator Bill Dean said Wednesday the NRC is looking into whether additional extensions could be granted. None of the nation's plants is more than 45 years old.

Thank You popup after Submission of Form
Hey there.
I'm looking to figure out a simple operation here, but getting stuck in the process. I have about... zero knowledge of the language this would be done in. I have a form (http://www.bucketbux.com/referralspam.php) where I would like a popup to appear once the submission of the form has been completed.
Here is what I have thus far:
PHP Code:<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
function vaidation()
var form = document.refspam;
if (form.ref_link.value == '' || form.email.value == '')
alert ('Please fill out the form completely before clicking submit!');
return false;
return true;
Help is appreciated! Thank you. =]

Surely function vaidation() should be function validation()
To create a pop-up, place the following right before return true;
var popWin = "";
function openwin(url, strWidth, strHeight) {
if (popWin != "") {popWin.close()}
leftStr = (screen.width-strWidth)/2;
topStr = (screen.height-strHeight)/2-50;
windowProperties = "toolbar=no,menubar=no,scrollbars=no,statusbar=no,height="+strHeight+",width="+strWidth+",left="+lef tStr+",top="+topStr+"";
popWin = window.open(url,'newWin',windowProperties);
Where the page yourURL.html contains the text of the message. Obviously you can change the size of the window to suit.
You asked for a pop-up. Be aware that many browsers block pop-up windows these days. Or do you mean just a simple alert?
If so, right before return true add:-
alert ("Thank you for submitting the form");

Unbelievable. I can't believe I didn't figure that out...
(Yes, by the way - it was the alert I was looking for.)
The same piece of code was used right before return false! Well, the simplest things are often the easiest to mess up, right?
Also, thanks for catching the validation typo. I did notice that after posting this thread but didn't think of editing it here. =]
Well, I tested the page and the alert works properly. Thank you very much!

The new draft regulation aims at simplifying the process, setting up a single step for the identification of the relevant market, including the finding of positions that are dominant or leading pluralism, and for issuing the measures provided by the Audiovisual Services Unified Act.
Among other things, AGCOM finally clarifies that the prior notification is requested only in case both anti-concentration thresholds are attained (namely Euro 48 million for the target and Euro 482 million for the parties involved). This should reduce the number of prior notifications, in line with what previously set out also for the Antitrust Authority.

Listen up, cat parents! We know spot-on flea and tick products are popular and rightly so. They're fast, easy to use, and effective. But are they safe?
As long as they are used according to label instructions, says ASPCA veterinarians. But when flea products for dogs are applied to cats, even a few drops can lead to an overdose.
Keep your cat safe from fleas this season with these expert tips:
- Talk to your vet about choosing the right, species-specific flea treatment for your pet, and never use products made for dogs on cats, or vice versa.
- Never use insecticides on very young, pregnant, ill or elderly animals without consulting your veterinarian.
- Avoid applying flea powders and sprays in addition to a spot-on treatment. The combination of chemicals in different products can cause an adverse reaction in your pet.
Twitching or muscle spasms may be the first sign of an overdose. If you suspect your pet is having a reaction to a flea infestation or topical flea product, contact your veterinarian, or call the ASPCA's poison control hotline at (888) 426-4435.

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Juju!
Facts about Juju
- Breed: Domestic Longhair
- Color: Black (All)
- Age: Kitten
- Sex: Female
- Hair: Long
Juju's Info...
I am already spayed, up to date with shots, good with dogs, and good with cats.
This long-haired, black beauty was found lying on the side of the road and rescued by an animal lover. She absolutely LOVES people. Her favorite place to be is purring next to her foster mommy. She also likes to sleep with her foster mom. She is slowly getting used to the cats in her foster home. She is also being fostered with two dogs, a Beagle and l;arhe Shepherd mix. JuJu has had no health issues since rescue. She is spayed, vaccinated and tested negative for FIV/FeLV. Her estimated date of birth is September 2011. last update: 2/5/12 very playful and loves other kitties. She's not afraid to let her foster mom know when she wants loving either! dob 9/15/10 I am spayed, current on vaccinations and tested negative for FIV/FeLV.

Why Adoption is a Great Option
Juju, a Cleveland Domestic Longhair kitten was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Domestic Longhair for sale in Cleveland, or seeking a Domestic Longhair kitten from a breeder in Cleveland.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Cleveland already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Cleveland breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Domestic Longhair breeders who help with Domestic Longhair rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Cleveland paves the way for another one to be saved.

On March 3rd, the Copyright Alliance submitted an amicus brief before the U.S. Supreme Court in support of broadcasters and the larger creative community in ABC v. Aereo. Professors Jon Garon, Hugh Hansen, Stan Liebowitz, Adam Mossoff, Raymond Nimmer, Sean O'Connor, Mark Schultz and John Simson joined in support of the brief.
Special thanks to Legal Advisory Board Members who drafted the brief Eleanor M. Lackman, Mary E. Rasenberger, Nancy E. Wolff and Scott J. Sholder from Cowan, Debaets, Abrahams & Sheppard. You can read the full brief here.
The public benefits from innovation in creative expression that relies on a strong and robust public performance right. This right is part of a copyright owner's bundle of rights regardless of how a work reaches the public. In the era of cord cutting and Internet dissemination of content, copyright protection is highly relevant to ensuring the continued creation and availability of high quality works. Moreover, "[i]f the trend of free-riding established by Aereo is allowed to continue, broadcasters – having been deprived of revenues – will be unable to pay for top-of-the-line programming, and the most popular shows will migrate from free over-the-air television to pay services that are able to protect them from Aereo-like services and are able to afford the license fees."
Congress envisioned copyright law to encompass the protection not only of those who create works but also of those who disseminate those works. The right of public performance has fostered the development of many industries. Indeed, "cable, satellite, and other licensed services have worked in partnership with creators to build businesses that benefit the public interest and that return compensation to creative workers in a variety of ways. These businesses pay significant royalties to contributors whose works are used in the broadcasts that those businesses retransmit." Reversal of the Second Circuit's erroneous decision would benefit the public interest as "ensuring that technology does not leave copyright law behind perpetuates the promise that when a consumer tunes into a new service, she will always be able to find something new to watch."
Aereo's unlicensed business model cannot be reconciled with the intent and text of U.S. copyright law. The fact that Aereo's subscribers are in different places and watch the transmissions through the Internet at different times are irrelevant for purposes of interpreting the statute. The Second Circuit took its erroneous reasoning in Cablevision and applied it in ABC v. Aereo "in a way that permits avoidance of the copyright law if a provider makes intermediate (and unnecessary) copies of transmitted works, even though to the consumer, the purpose for subscribing is to "watch live TV" – just as the consumer would do over cable or a licensed Internet service." A number of copyright scholars have pointed out that Cablevision arrived at its result by erroneously substituting the word "performance" for the word "transmission" in the statute. The Aereo court compounded this error by creating "four complicated and convoluted guideposts that bear no resemblance to the broad statutory language or the intent of Congress in drafting the Copyright Act's definitions."

Nonsmooth AnalysisOne of the sources of the classical di?erential calculus is the search for m- imum or maximum points of a real-valued function. Similarly, nonsmooth analysisoriginatesinextremumproblemswithnondi?erentiabledata.Bynow, a broad spectrum of re?ned concepts and methods modeled on the theory of di?erentiation has been developed. Theideaunderlyingthepresentationofthematerialinthisbookistostart with simple problems treating them with simple methods, gradually passing to more di?cult problems which need more sophisticated methods. In this sense, we pass from convex functionals via locally Lipschitz continuous fu- tionals to general lower semicontinuous functionals. The book does not aim at being comprehensive but it presents a rather broad spectrum of important and applicable results of nonsmooth analysis in normed vector spaces. Each chapter ends with references to the literature and with various exercises. ThebookgrewoutofagraduatecoursethatIrepeatedlyheldattheTe- nische Universität Dresden. Susanne Walther and Konrad Groh, participants of one of the courses, pointed out misprints in an early script preceding the book. I am particularly grateful to Heidrun Pu ̈hl and Hans-Peter Sche?er for a time of proli?c cooperation and to the latter also for permanent technical support. The Institut fu ̈r Analysis of the Technische Universit ̈ atDresdenp- vided me with the facilities to write the book. I thank Quji J.

Charles Paul Crowley Jr.
Jan. 12, 1928-Dec. 10, 2012
Civic leader, engineer, and lifelong resident of the San Gabriel Valley. Born in Long Beach, CA to Charles P. Crowley, Sr. of Springfield, MA and Agnes (Leary)
Crowley of Lexington, MA. Crowley grew up in the cities of San Gabriel and Alhambra. He attended St. Therese School in Alhambra and graduated from South Pasadena-San Marino HS in 1945, playing tennis and football. He was an Eagle Scout in Troop 15 in Alhambra.
Crowley graduated in 1949 from the University of Arizona in Tucson with a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering. He was a member of the US Army ROTC and the Delta Sigma Phi fraternity.
Crowley served in the US Army in Ft. Belvoir, VA from 1950-52. He married the former Marie Kreuper of Alhambra in 1951 and moved to San Marino in 1961.
Professionally, Crowley was president of the Charles P. Crowley Company of Irwindale (formerly City of Commerce), CA from 1962-1995. The company continues today in its 81st year as a manufacturers' representative for engineered equipment for the water, wastewater, petrochemical and power industries. He was a Professional Engineer and a life member of several trade organizations.
Crowley's involvement with the City of San Marino began as a teenage worker in Lacy Park in 1946. Informally known as Mr. San Marino, he served on the SM Planning Commission for 2 terms, on SM City Council for 3 terms, and was Mayor from 1988-89. He also served as SM's representative to the Sanitation Districts of LA County. His role in the preservation of the historic Thurnher House in Lacy Park was one of his proudest achievements. The 2013 San Marino centennial book is dedicated to his memory.
Crowley served as president of the
Rotary Club
of SM, SM City Club, SM Historical Society, SM Tennis Club, SM Little League, and SM Saints Jr. All-American Football. He was a Trustee at Southwestern Academy, an Asst. Scoutmaster of SM Troop 355, a Board Member of SM Girl Scouts, a parishioner of Sts. Felicitas & Perpetua Catholic Church, and a member of the Valley and San Gabriel Country Clubs.
A lifelong lover of high school football, Crowley was the football game announcer at SMHS from 1975-2006. He was president of the SMHS Football Boosters Club and attended every San Marino-South Pasadena HS rivalry football game from 1955-2012, a streak of 58 games. The trophy for the game was renamed the Crowley Cup in 2010.
Crowley is survived by his wife of 61 years, Marie, son Jon and daughter-in-law Carolyn (Wagner) Crowley of San Marino, grandsons Charles Paul (Chip) Crowley III and Patrick Leahy Crowley, and granddaughter Kelly Claire Crowley. He is preceded in death by his daughter, Claire Marie Crowley, in 1979.
A private funeral Mass will be held with burial in Avalon, CA. A salute to his life will be held on Sunday, January 27, 2013 at 2:00 PM at Southwestern Academy, 2800 Monterey Road, San Marino. In lieu of flowers, please send donations to the Claire Crowley Memorial Art Fund at San Marino HS, 750 Winston Ave., San Marino, CA 91108.

The Healthy Families Act, sponsored by Sen. Ted Kennedy, D-Mass., and Rep. Rosa DeLauro, D-Conn., would require all businesses with 15 or more workers to offer seven days of paid sick leave.
Many American workers have no paid sick leave at all. About half of all American workers, and half of all women workers, have no paid sick days. Three in four low-wage workers had no paid sick leave.
The bill will protect worker and public health, and also help the economy by increasing worker productivity, advocates said.
"No working person should be forced to choose between protecting their own or their families' health and a much-needed day's salary," said Marcia Greenberger, co-president of the National Women's Law Center. "Women are hit especially hard when their employers don't offer paid sick leave because they typically shoulder a greater share of family care-giving needs than their male peers."
Sick workers can spread sickness to others if they cannot stay home, said Jeff Levi, executive director of Trust for America's Health.
"The proposed sick and family leave policies are also essential for containing the spread of infectious disease and limiting the risk of illness during public health emergencies," Levi said.

At The Butcher Shoppe, handcrafting sausage and sculpting fresh cuts of meat is a family legacy. Owner Kevin Green and his son Jordan will tell you that serving as a local expert on meat is not just a job; it's a way of life. When the father-son team welcomed Troy Moon of the Pensacola News Journal into their store, Jordan showed off his extensive beef knowledge, knife skills, and the tattoo on his arm, which depicts a snarling steak holding a butcher's knife in each hand. When asked how long he planned to work for his dad, the ambitious and dedicated youth replied, "Hopefully until he either gives up this one to me, or we open another one." Given their talent and close connection with their customers, that may not be a bad idea.
In addition to prime, certified Angus and choice beef, the duo showcases specialty items such as bison and alligator, providing a "how-to" cooking guide with each cut in order to ensure the best flavor. They also turn their patrons' wild game into sausage—adding hot Cajun spices, maple, or sage for an extra kick—and handpick marinades and barbecue sauces that are ideal for slathering on grilled meats or making slip 'n' slide journeys more flavorful.
Cajun Specialty Meats crafts an array of piquant delights from third-generation family recipes. Seasoned pork stuffed into andouille sausages ($5.50 each) lends authentic Cajun flavor to gumbo, jambalaya, and rice. A selection of meats stuffed with other meats picks up where nature's creativity left off with complex protein ecosystems. Feast on a pork chop ($20) or a 10-pound turducken ($55), each filled with Cajun sausage. Meatless options include a selection of heat-and-eat entrees such as a sweet-potato-and-praline casserole ($8.99) that serves 8–10 people. Customers should call ahead to place Mardi Gras orders.
Licensed skincare therapist and aesthetician Charlotte Field nourishes the well-being of Skin Couture's clients by purifying their pores and showing patrons the benefits of regular pampering. Out of a passion for tailoring dermal suits of all shapes and sizes, Charlotte uses Dermalogica skincare products and constantly maintains skills according to the International Dermal Institute's latest innovations, products, and procedures.
At Eastern Shore Weight Loss, patients lose weight under the guidance of Dr. Richard Snellgrove. Using info from patients' initial consultations, Dr. Snellgrove and his staff can create a personalized course of action. That may include medical weight-loss tools such as phentermine, which is an appetite suppressant; lipotropic injections, which are fat-burning compounds; or B12 injections, which are doses of vitamin B12 designed to supply the energy needed to exercise or transcribe Ulysses.
Tanner's assortment of handcrafted candies, pies, and gift baskets cast a spotlight on fresh, locally grown pecans. Wrap your smile around forkfuls of chocolate chip pecan pie ($19.50), a deep-dish taste explosion of nut and rich cocoa, or surprise a fellow dessert fanatic with the maple pecan fudge gift box ($17.95). Containers of praline candied pecans ($15.95) showcase Rubenesque nuts flaunting Creole-spiced sugar gowns. Sugar-free and kosher items also abound in the treat emporium. Swing by one of Tanner's shops to pick up gourmet confections before the holidays, when confections are notoriously scarce.
Thomas Auld began his career as a fisherman in 1952, and since then, his family has been in the seafood business, specializing in shrimp. At Fisherman's Legacy, patrons may peruse lobster tails and fish fillets behind the glass counters of the marketplace or sit down for a meal of fried shrimp, crab cakes, and hush puppies in the dining area.

I just have to complain about this. Last week I was in New York City, strolling along Park Avenue. It was a lovely day and of course Park Avenue is extremely well-kept with a lot of plantings. In the wide median there were tons of blooming magnolia soulangia, you know, that pinkish-purple color, and all these blooming magnolias were underplanted with....
Thousands of lipstick red tulips!!! Yargh! It was the ugliest combo imaginable, especially considering all the other perfectly lovely tulip colors available.... |

I am most certianly lacking in a properly-educated aesthetic sense, because to me an arrangement of muddy brown maroon plants (often advertized as purple, true maroon or bronze, and would that they were) with chartreuse/yellow foliage plants, sans any other color, especially leaf green, as a softening agent, looks as appealing, and uses much the same palette, as old vomit on the sidewalk. I've said this before, but it bears repeating. Springcherry |
Whoa, Springcherry, you guys have chartreuse and maroon vomit in Philly? What're folks eating down there? No wait, don't answer that! I guess I don't know what a "properly educated aesthetic" is, but I've always disliked pinks together with bright reds or orange. Wouldn't you think the people who live on Park Ave should have the "educated aesthetic"? But anyway, chartreuse and maroon sounds quite nice, as long as I can get the idea of the puke outta my mind... :) |
Two of my neighbors have Pepto-Bismol pink carpet roses paired w/Stella Daylilies. To my eye this is a very disturbing combo. I normally don't like pinks and oranges together either, w/the exception of mixed zinnias. I usually plant a mass of State Fair Giant mixed colors in the backyard and somehow the riot of color (pinks & oranges included!) seems to work. They never fail to make me smile! |
every year the local bank plants ....marigolds on the outer boxed in flower bed about 3 feet by 10 feet.....with snapdragons.... red ones. red and gold every single year.........over 15+ yrs and counting..... I just pray that overnight someone sneaks in there and plants something different....and of course I'm not the only one! Hey let's shake it up and plant anything else please!!!! |
Eye-scorching marigolds and celosias with ageratums. They are especially ugly when spider mites attack, as they usually seem to do in the beds planted around here. Then you not only have the horrible color combination, the blooms sit on top of scraggly brown foliage. Makes my eyes hurt on a hot, dry summer afternoon. |

JayCo -- its amazing the colors a vomit's worth of cheesewhiz(from cheesesteaks)beer and nachos with the works can turn. Guess you've never been in Philly during the Mummer's parade. The funny thing is that in painting as in life, bright red and pink seem hard to combine well. Im not sure why but they are, or at least I find them so. Dark red is much easier to use with pink. And when orange and pink are combined it works best if the pink is a warm pink. A lilac pink and orange can be just so so wrong. Somehow Ive miscalculated so that Ive got magenta pink, red and orange all in my front yard right now. Its a good thing I love my garden because I almost think its works, but then, as they say, love is blind. Springcherry |
